Therefore I guess this is a problem either in the Linux kernel or in
QEMU/KVM.
What kernel are you running on (and were you running on)?
Can you try F20 host and F21 guest or vice versa?
Hello Paolo,
Always latest available stable versions (kernel/qemu-kvm):
F20: 3.17.6-200.fc20.x86_64 on guest/host, qemu-kvm-1.6.2-10.fc20.x86_64
on host
F21: 3.17.7-300.fc21.x86_64 on guest/host, qemu-kvm-2.1.2-7.fc21.x86_64
on host
(I had also 3.17.6-300.fc21.x86_64 and it happended there, too).
The topic is: it happens after some time (e.g. hours to days)
It is production environment running around 10VMs and I want to avoid
many experiments there. Since kernels were the same on FC20/F21 and
qemu/kvm changed from 1.6.2 to 2.1.2 I guess the topic seems to be
there. Also newer gcc might be a topic.

I guess it hangs in the do/while loop here:
